"Damn it, shut these lowly people up!" Meierbeili instinctively sensed something was wrong. The arrogance displayed by these ant-like Chambord lowlys infuriated him.
Moreover, despite sending two of his strongest warriors into battle, he hadn't even managed to get that damned King of Chambord to glance at him. Instead, he was being made a fool of himself, which only fueled the righteous anger of these lowly Chambord people. For this ruthless king who had never suffered a loss Zongheng millions of miles of the continent, this was an utter disgrace.
Behind him, besides Isakson, was the last Moon Class expert. Upon hearing this, he turned around without hesitation. In a flash, he was in the air, his whole body blazing with golden, sharp metal-type Dou Qi aura. Sharp energy bursts shot out like a barrage of Chambord towards the ordinary people in the crowd outside the square. He actually attacked ordinary people directly, ruthless and inhuman!
"Shameless!"
"Mean!"
"Stop it!"
"A dignified Moon Class expert actually attacks ordinary civilians! Where is his Glory as a strong person? It's a disgrace!"
No one expected the [ Wind-Racing Horse ] mercenary group to be so shameless and lacking in the awareness of a strong person. Inside the plaza, the people in the seating area of Chambord City were both shocked and furious. A tragic scene of bloodshed was about to unfold, and it was too late for others to stop it...
However, at that very moment, an unexpected event occurred that no one could have foreseen!
The sharp and terrifying metal-type Dou Qi qi sword energy, less than a meter away from the ordinary crowd on the outer edge of the square, suddenly, without warning, ripples of sky blue appeared in the void. An invisible magical protective shield appeared out of thin air in a flash. The metal-type battle qi of the Moon Class strength crashed relentlessly against this light barrier, creating countless spots like raindrops hitting the surface of water, but it still failed to break through this light barrier!
The next instant, the Moon Class expert from [ Wind-Racing Horse ] turned cold, roared, and punched the light screen hard.
This was the full-force attack of this Moon Class expert, earth-shattering!
Even a massive mountain could probably be shattered and pierced by a single punch from him.
However, it was all in vain.
The sheer sturdiness of that azure magical barrier far exceeded everyone's expectations. A punch powerful enough to shatter an ancient city wall only created a small dent of less than a centimeter on the barrier. The next instant, the Moon Class expert's expression turned to utter horror, and with a roar of fury, the dent in the barrier rebounded...
"Ugh... Pfft!!!!"
This imposing Moon Class expert spat out a jet of blood, and his right arm cracked and snapped as if struck by a hurricane. He was sent flying backward and crashed down beside [ War Pirate ] Meierbeili and the others, staggering and barely able to stand!
The Storm Riders changed drastically!
In the VIP seating area of the square, almost everyone stood up in astonishment, staring incredulously at the sky-blue light curtain.
At the same time, this thin curtain of light began to spread in all directions like a flowing curtain of water, and in the blink of an eye, it enveloped the entire square, like a huge inverted blue dome, trapping the entire square and everyone in it inside.
"What's this?"
"[ Water Curtain Heaven Flower ]? It can withstand the full force of Half Moon Class expert? Could it be... a forbidden spell-level water-based defensive shield? How is that possible?"
"This is impossible. How much energy would be needed to support such a massive, forbidden-level [ Water Curtain Heaven Flower ] shield? Even the legendary perfect-level [Magic Stone] would struggle to achieve this... How did the Chambord manage to do it? How could they possibly do it?"
" King of Chambord... he actually trapped us all inside this magical shield, what... what is he trying to do?"
"What a grand gesture! What audacity!! Hahaha, as expected of [ One Fist Spanning the Heavens ] King of Chambord, is he going to wipe out all the powerful figures in one fell swoop? Haha, I'm afraid he's being far too arrogant? He'll reap what he sows!"
"I never imagined the Chambord people possessed such strength. The sheer power of this forbidden-spell-level protective barrier is comparable to that of a first-tier empire. This King of Chambord has no small ambition!"
Everyone in the square paled in shock.
Being inside the [ Water Curtain Heaven Flower ] shield, which is of forbidden spell level, gave everyone a sense of insecurity, as if they were trapped in a prison.
Even in the Holy Church area, a mysterious elderly priest with white hair and beard, who had always been smiling and confident in front of the priest Mazzola and the knight Luciano, couldn't help but change color slightly at this moment. Behind him, five or six knights who had been silent all stood up in surprise.
Meanwhile, King of Chambord Alexander and his two stunningly beautiful queens had already ascended to the fourth level of the nine-story, thirty-six-step platform.
From beginning to end, the young King never looked back, not even once.
The two stunningly beautiful princesses beside him were the same.
A flicker of fear and wariness finally flashed in the eyes of [ War Pirate ] Meierbeili. The series of unexpected events made him suddenly realize that everything that had happened before seemed to be part of the King's plan. His opponent's composure was terrifying. Although the [ Dragon Hunting Alliance ] had not yet made its move, his hasty intervention made him seem like cannon fodder. For example, that damned [ Fire Blood ] mercenary group—not a single person had stepped forward yet!
I initially thought a small vassal state wouldn't have the strength to stand against the [ Wind-Racing Horse ]... but now it seems this King of Chambord is quite something!
It seems we have to get serious now!
Just as Meierbeili was about to take action himself, someone else finally stepped forward from the VIP seating area.
" Alexander, what do you mean by this? You actually used the forbidden-level [ Water Curtain Heaven Flower ] magic protective array to cover the entire square. What is this? Are you trying to imprison us all here and wipe us out?" The person who spoke up called out King of Chambord by his name, extremely impolitely.
He wore a magnificent crimson magical armor, faintly glowing with light, and a light blue M-shaped imperial royal insignia sweater over it. He was around thirty years old, with short black hair, tall and thin, and his slanted triangular eyes held an arrogant gaze.
The crowd gasped in surprise.
Many people recognized him as the head of the Marseille Empire's wedding delegation, Prince Eduardo Cisse of the Marseille Empire.
Behind Prince Cisse of Marseille stood three warriors clad in the light blue royal Glory of the Marseille Empire. Their Dou Qi auras flickered faintly, exuding a powerful and unwavering presence. Although they had not yet made a move, the aura they displayed was already astonishing. These three were likely already at the Moon Class.
As a prince of the Marseille Empire, Cisse spoke in a very unfriendly tone, almost accusing.
Although not explicitly stated, this stance clearly aligns with the [ Wind-Racing Horse ] mercenary group, leading some to wonder if the Marseille Empire is also joining forces against Chambord City and choosing this moment to launch an attack.
Faced with the questions, some people from Chambord City also stepped forward.
Chancellor George Best emerged from the seating area, exuding elegance and displaying the demeanor of a quintessential aristocratic gentleman.
"My king's actions are not intended to disrespect anyone, but simply to thoroughly eliminate those heartless wolves who were treated with kindness and hospitality by Chambord City, only to reveal their Teeth at the crucial moment, lest any escapees flee and harm the unarmed civilians in the city," Beisitan said, glancing at the Marseille Empire with a half-smile. " Prince Cisse, if your Marseille Empire harbors no ill will towards Chambord City, why feign tension and act so aggressively?"
These words were spoken with neither servility nor arrogance, but with politeness and restraint.
This brought some relief to the VIPs who were initially anxious about being trapped in [ Water Curtain Heaven Flower ].
"Hmph, I don't care about all that. Protecting civilians is your own business. But the existence of this magical shield makes me uncomfortable. I give you, Chambord City, three breaths to immediately remove the magical shield, otherwise, the strongmen of our Marseille Empire will have to take action themselves!" Cisse's long, triangular eyes flashed with an aggressive arrogance as he threatened unreasonably.
Behind him, three knights clad in royal Glory slowly emerged, their Dou Qi auras blazing. An overwhelming aura surged from their burly bodies, causing the surrounding crowd to change color. These three were actually Moon Class experts!
Prince Cisse of Marseille, with such an aggressive stance, is clearly well-prepared and confident.
Second update.
